Ok so I have been reading this forum for a couple of years but a move and now having a man cave means I can slowly get to work sorting out my collection of used Schumachers and share some of the info I have with fellow collectors.

I plan to update this with the progress to date

CAT SWB / Box + Manual / I have 90% of the car (Bumper & lower chassis needed) box artwork planned
CAT XL / Manual / Left over parts box artwork planned
CAT XLS / Box + Manual / In Restoration planned for a masi shell
Bosscat Works / Box + Manual / Needs restoration box artwork planned
CAT 2000 / Box + Manual / My car origional CAT needs converting back from an EC and shell
Cat SXII / / A mess
CAT k1 Aero / Box + Manual / My race car is on its way1

C-Car / Box / Missing some minor parts
Fireblade Evo / Box + Manual / Rebuilt just awaiting shell painting
Cougar SVR / Box + Manual / New Build

This car is the cleanest of my collection but still nervous pulling it apart and seeing what was inside early this week. Looking forward to doing these 5 rebuilds. In regards to this XLS we have I believe that it has an origional diff that isn't stripped result! I hope someone here can answer the layshaft question as this isn't the black plastic it should be in the manual and it isn't a nylon looking MMS one. Could it be Parma? I am also intreguid by the C-Car chassis question to. There loads of experts on here so hope someone can help me learn.

Nice collection you've got there! And the box is ace :D
I would be very surprised if your chassis is not homemade. Layshaft is Nodis.

Nodis now there is a brand I have never heard of googled it and ended up back on here with another cat that also had an Nodis diff! Anyone got any info or adverts on this company? I found parts of the origional layshaft in the small box of spares that came with the car black plastic as per the manual.

Thanks for the info
